| Abstract: | Despite spectacular output growth and significant employment creation, recent findings suggest that China's TVEs are "under-employing" labour relative to the competitive benchmark. The paper reconfirms these findings on a new data set, discusses the possibility that it is caused by enterprises confronting upward-sloping labour supply curves, and performs a preliminary test for this by regressing the estimated marginal product-wage gaps for our enterprise sample on variables proxying for labour security etc. |
